That the list I was talking about. I remember the last time I downloaded them they accidentally labeled I think two of them as one of the games featured in the Gameroom library instead of it proper.

With video game pinball I want either realistic physics with real tables or something completely videogamey like Devil Crash. Megadrive version.


Pinball FX is a lot of the latter. I mean it goes for semi-realistic ball physics but a lot of the tables are quite insane.

Game Room might be my favourite Giant Bomb thing of all time. The progression of it is just perfect, from the starting enthusiasm to the slow descending despair and ambivalence to ending with loving Venetian Blinds. I'm sure we've all seen that 5 stages of grief compilation video.

For better or worse, I could watch Jeff sit around and talk about old games from now and 'till forever. I wish there was some alternative service out there that actually worked.

I can definitely say that Game Room is my favorite thing they have done. They start out so hyped going YEAH THESE OLD GAMES ARE OK PLUS DREAMCAST STUFF IS COMING! and it's just this steady slope downwards. Nothing can top that time Jeff tricked Ryan into sitting in on another Game Room video instead of Bioshock.

I think that Game Room as a concept just doesn't work and won't ever work on a large scale. There's too many contracts and rights spread to too many parties that the cost will never work out and even if it did hardly anyone will ever actually play them.

I didn't say you were bad cupcake, I said you were wrong. It doesn't get to -30 degrees in Colorado all the time, in fact -24 is the record coldest it's ever gotten in Denver. Also flushing salt water through your nose has dubious practical benefits, but if you need a little placebo to feel better, well thats nice.

This is the dumbest loving argument holy poo poo. I'd wipe out the earth's population just to never hear "Heh, you think that's cold?" and the ensuing debate again.

One of my favorite moments was when Jeff bought Sonic Adventure on XBLA out of disgust towards Game Room and then realized halfway through the download that he hated Sonic Adventure.

It's true. I'm from Oregon which is similar (a little colder) but it's fantastic. I lived in Las Vegas for 4 years and during the summer I never wanted to go outside for longer than 20 minutes.

It can't be the perfect temperature unless you can pass out naked on a beach without getting either goosebumps or heatstroke.

I assure you that you will not get goosebumps or heatstroke by passing out on the beach in 19C. Trust me, I've done it.

If you pass out on the beach here you will probably die within an hour from UV radiation literally melting your flesh, even on a cool summer day.

Played some La Mulana again. I really hope they don't go into deep coverage, the game is fun but it will be 4 hours of wandering around with no real idea of what's going on. That or them following a guide almost straight up.

19C is too cold to go to the beach :I

Here we have 2 seasons, hot and cold. In Hot season it's like, 40-50C. In cold season it's about 5-10C which is REALLY COLD when you're used to 45C and don't own a jacket.

In between the two seasons it gets really nice for a bit though.

I'm from the UK and if you don't have like 1 death per 100,000 people and the country grinding to a halt when the temperature drops below 20F or rises above 85F then you're spending far too much time worrying about stupid bullshit like 'preparedness'.

30C is way too loving hot, anything over that is grounds for just burying yourself in a deep hole and letting the chilling embrace of the grave take you. What kind of blasted hellscape do you and your lizard man brethren live in?

Middle East, so literally a blasted hellscape in parts

There's AC everywhere, you never feel the heat unless you're outdoors. It's actually 23C in your car, office, house, shopping, pretty much everywhere. If you go to the beach well there's water at least.

It is amazing that during the redesign process, no one realised how loving painful it was to watch things like endurance runs from the beginning. As someone who has done a lot of WebMastery, I get that there are a million different use cases you're trying to deal with, but there are some simple things that make the site awful to use. A lot of it comes down to their insistence on using AJAX for everything and making it impossible to link/bookmark pages.
